OGC Seeks Comments on MovingObjectSnapshot Standard

Status:

Please note: This Request is scheduled to close on August 23rd, 2010.

The Open Geospatial
Consortium, Inc. (OGC®) is seeking public comment on a Geography Markup
Language (GML) XML encoding for describing the characteristics of a moving
object, such as a GPS enabled car. This
candidate standard provides a way of describing in simple terms the
motion of an object, such as a car driving through city streets or a person
walking in a park.

This candidate
standard fills a need for “lightweight” packets of tracking information, such
as direction and velocity, that can be communicated between diverse platforms
and applications supporting mobile location-aware devices. The GML encoding
used in this candidate standard is
compatible with a wide range of other standard encodings used in other
communities, such as emergency services.
